Three women's stories of independence and motherhood, love and loss, power and family, across three different moments in history, intertwine in New York Times bestselling author Pamela Redmond's new novel, The Possibility of You (Gallery Books, paperback, $15.00, on sale 2/28/12).
1916. It was the one thing Bridget was supposed to never let happen. But no matter how many times she replayed the steps in her head, she couldn't reanimate the small pale boy who lay limp in her arms.
1976. Billie felt as if she'd been wrenched in half more surely than when the baby had been cut from her body. But she felt something else too: happy to think only of her own needs, her own tears. So light she could float away, somewhere no one would ever find her.
The present. Even if Cait never found her birth mother, even if she decided not to have this baby, to leave her lover and kiss her parents good-bye, she was surrounded by such emotion, so many questions, that she felt as if she might never be free again.
Can we ever atone for the sins of the past? Or does each generation of women invent itself anew? In a complex and beautifully told masterpiece set against key moments for women in the last century, New York Times bestselling author Pamela Redmond intertwines the heartrending stories of Bridget, Billie, and Cait, and explores the ways in which one woman's choices can affect her loved ones forever. As these three women search for identity and belonging, each faces a very personal decision that will reverberate across generations, tearing apart families, real and imaginary, perfect and flawed, but ultimately bringing them together again.
Pamela Redmond is, as Pamela Redmond Satran, the author of five other novels and the creator of the online fictional world Ho Springs. Her books have been published around the world and optioned for film and television by Steven Spielberg's Amblin Entertainment and ABC.
A New York Times bestselling humor writer and columnist for Glamour, Pamela Redmond Satran wrote the article 30 Things Every Woman Should Have and Should Know by the Time She's 30, which became an internet sensation often credited as Maya Angelou's Best Poem Ever and will be published as a book this May. She is the coauthor with Linda Rosenkrantz of eight books on baby names and the developer of the popular website Nameberry.
Pamela Redmond and her husband Richard Satran, an editor for Reuters, live near New York and are the parents of a daughter, Rory, and sons Joe and Owen.
